More i-start across the range

Launched in 2001 on a few selected Echo tools, i-start is now available models in the Echo brushcutter, chainsaw and trimmer ranges and on Echo blowers. This device makes first time starting of 2 stroke engines a certainty - and removes 90% of the effort required.

i-start stores the energy of one long and gentle pull, or two short pulls of the recoil starter and delivers it in a dynamic burst that starts the engine every time.

i-start will be welcomed particularly by those who feel that such a dramatic improvement in 2 stroke starting technology is a major step forward.
